That looks to be an Eastern milk snake. They are completely harmless.

Thanks guys....I'm honestly not that great with the North American colubrids. I can tell what is venomous and what is not, but I always get confused between the rat snakes and milks. Are there any easy ways to tell the differences?

Milks (and Kings) are smoother and have a less distinctive head shape than Rats.
